The narrative all but proclaimed "we did it ... we are guilty" even though the perp was neither Kiwi nor Christian. Having admitted the sin was it not reasonable to expect someone would administer the penance upon the most defenseless?
As Marx said "every giant ... presupposes a dwarf, every genius a hidebound philistine". So then does every virtue signal presuppose a designated sinner. Virtue signaling is really another way of saying "blame them ... blame them".
This is why the Western virtuous wore hijabs, partly in solidarity but partly to say "I am not as these sinners", meaning not the perp but what the virtuous believed the perp represented. Maybe Gaia forgives but ISIS does not.
